Although it would seem simpler to place 1/2 colony of parasites in one 6" Hatching Station, proper distribution practices should still be followed. Dividing your shipments into several properly placed hatching stations will maximize your Fly Control effectiveness. Do not place your Fly Parasites all in one spot. Place Fly Parasites in all manure areas - inside barns, near paddock and loafing areas. Place them along fence lines and near the perimeter of manure piles, pits or bins. Also place them near water troughs, rotting hay and feed, compost piles, drainage sites, kennels and any other sites where livestock droppings accumulate.

Our recommended standard size is 3 inches high. It holds approximately 1/8 colony when filled half way. The number of parasites which will hatch from this size when filled half way is normally more than sufficient for most areas. Filling Hatching Stations half way or less provides good air circulation, prevents placement of too much material in one area and allows the parasites to be placed in more locations.
We offer 4 and 6 inch versions for use in areas of extreme fly infestation. All Hatching Stations are 3 inches in diameter with differing heights. Larger sizes are available for commercial users with greater numbers of animals in limited space. Commercial users please call for sizes and pricing.
